The three of them soon found a secluded corner.

Gu Mian wasn't afraid of Chu Changge transforming into a monster with four eyes and two mouths; rather, he was afraid of him transforming into a woman.

After all, the name on the school badge was 'Meiren Chu,' which hardly sounded like a name for a boy.

The obscured photo was likely a woman's. If Chu Changge suddenly transformed into a woman after the stain was wiped off, the situation would become incredibly awkward.

Fortunately, even if he did turn into a woman, removing the school badge would change him back. That's why Gu Mian dared to proceed.

Not far from the ticket booth, they found a hidden corner and prepared themselves.

Gu Mian, holding the 'Kitten-Head Eraser,' said to Chu Changge, "I think you should brace yourself."

Chu Changge nodded slightly. "I'm prepared."

Even Fatty, next to them, held his breath, silently nodding in agreement.

Gu Mian didn't waste any time. The corner they were in was dimly lit, but it was still possible to see.

He reached out, grabbed the school badge still pinned to Chu Changge's coat, and began to scrub it vigorously with the eraser in his hand.

This eraser indeed worked wonders.

The bloodstain, which previously wouldn't come off no matter how hard they scrubbed, actually began to fade.

The obscured section also slowly began to appear.

Fatty, standing beside them, had craned his entire head over, apparently wanting to see what Chu Changge would look like.

The bloodstains gradually vanished, and the concealed content slowly emerged.

Both Gu Mian and Fatty furrowed their brows.

They saw that the covered part didn't seem to be a photo at all, but rather something reflective.

Gu Mian continued to scrub vigorously.

Soon, what lay underneath was completely revealed.

"It's definitely not a photo..." Gu Mian took a small step back, staring at the school badge still hanging on Chu Changge's chest.

Fatty, however, took another step forward, getting closer to Chu Changge, almost pressing his face to the school badge. "I say, Doctor... look, this seems to be a small mirror, right?"

"Yes," Gu Mian nodded slightly. "It is indeed a mirror."

Where the headshot should have been on the school badge, there was now a small, square mirror.

Fatty leaned closer to look at the mirror on the school badge. The tiny mirror could only reflect his eye. Seeing an eye appear in the small square in front of him, Fatty felt a bit creeped out.

He instinctively took a couple of steps back.

But after retreating a few steps, Fatty sensed something was amiss.

Their surroundings were dim, but not so dark as to play tricks on one's eyes.

Yet, Fatty was certain the person before him had changed.

He was currently looking down slightly, so he could only see the lower half of the person before him. Those overstuffed, bulging trousers, and those tattered shoes that had clearly suffered a lot... how could they not look familiar!

Damn it, isn't this my own outfit?!

Fatty's neck stiffened. In the dim corner, he slowly raised his head. His gaze met a face identical to his own.

It was staring intently at him. Fatty staggered, so frightened he nearly had a heart attack.

"Don't panic," Gu Mian said, steadying Fatty. "It's Chu Changge."

Hearing this, Fatty finally composed himself. He twisted his neck to look towards Chu Changge again. "My god, so this is what the school badge does?"

Chu Changge, now looking like Fatty, suddenly spoke, "This school badge allows the wearer to change their appearance to that of the person reflected in the mirror. It can only be used once a day, and each use lasts for thirty minutes."

"So, it transforms the wearer to look like whoever is reflected in the mirror?" Gu Mian stroked his chin. "This thing seems a bit tricky to use, doesn't it?"

"It can be covered with something," Chu Changge said, reaching out to cover the school badge on his chest with his hand. "When you want to change your appearance, remove the covering and reflect the person you wish to become."

Fatty, still shaken, looked at the person in front of him who looked just like him. "Can it turn you into a ghost too?"

Chu Changge paused slightly. "We can try it in the next instance."

That would be terrifying.

You'd never know if the one chasing you in an instance was a ghost or your teammate.

Fatty asked cautiously, "You'd better not change randomly. What if the Doctor accidentally chops off your head?"

However, the item had to be worn to be effective. So, even if Chu Changge turned into a ghost, he would still be wearing the school badge. Gu Mian would see the badge and naturally wouldn't chop his head off.

But Gu Mian couldn't help feeling that Fatty's statement was a bit off. "I say, I haven't chopped off that many heads, have I?"

Fatty just chuckled, not responding.

It had to be said that Chu Changge's and Fatty's temperaments were worlds apart; even if they looked the same, it would be impossible to mistake them.

Even when transformed to be as large as Fatty, Chu Changge still carried an "I'm the coolest dude far and wide" air, remaining expressionless and disinclined to say much.

Fatty, on the other hand, circled Chu Changge, observing him for quite a while and constantly exclaiming things like, "So this is how handsome I am!"

The transformation could be reversed by removing the school badge. However, Chu Changge had to keep wearing it to conceal his real name.

So Gu Mian and the others waited in the dim corner for thirty minutes, for Chu Changge to revert to his own appearance, before heading into the advanced ticket booth.

Actually, it wouldn't have been impossible for Chu Changge to enter the instance in Fatty's form. However, for one, two big fatties would be too conspicuous; for another, if two fatties entered an instance and one disappeared midway, it would also scare the other players.

So, they waited there for the time to pass.

Thirty minutes passed quickly. Chu Changge had already changed back to his original appearance, and Fatty could no longer observe his own 'handsome' face up close.

"Let's enter the instance," Gu Mian said, taking a few steps towards the ticket booth. "We can test out the functionality of your badge, Chu Changge. Oh, and let me know in advance if you decide to turn into a ghost."

Chu Changge paused slightly behind him, then nodded.

The instances from the advanced ticket booth were supposed to be quite high-level. This was evident from the ticket seller inside the booth.

Upon seeing Gu Mian, this ticket seller in the advanced ticket booth didn't have an overly dramatic reaction; his expression merely stiffened slightly, looking as if he was mentally prepared.

The players queuing behind Gu Mian's group noticed the ticket seller's subtle expression and couldn't help but find it a bit strange.

However, this slight oddity was quickly overlooked by people. Players came and went in the ticket booth area; some were holding tickets, preparing to enter an instance, while others had just emerged from an instance, their faces full of terror.

Meanwhile, Gu Mian and the others had already started matchmaking for the instance.

[Matching instance...]

Gu Mian: "..."

He felt as if he were watching a group of brothel girls unenthusiastically refusing customers.
